Barcelona’s Ferran Torres is full of confidence as Hansi Flick’s team pushes for major trophies this season. The forward believes the team can compete strongly in Europe and at home. His recent form has helped boost the mood inside the squad.
As shared by Fabrizio Romano on his official X handle,
Fabrizio Romano reported;
Ferran Torres: “Of course we can beat Atlético… and we will go for it”.
This shows his belief ahead of big matches. Barcelona are also in strong form after a 4-1 win over Espanyol.
Torres played a big role in that derby win by scoring two goals. The result helped Barcelona extend their La Liga lead to nine points. Softfootball understands this run of form has given the team more confidence going into key fixtures.
Fabrizio Romano also shared another quote from the player about criticism in his official X handle.
Fabrizio Romano reported;
Ferran Torres on his haters: “There are often people who talk about me in a negative way, but they say very little positive things… it bothers them”. “I’m focused on myself, I keep working hard”.
Torres is focused on improving and helping the team. He is working hard in training every day to stay consistent.
Off the pitch, there is also tension from their last meeting with Atlético Madrid. Barcelona have officially filed a complaint to UEFA over VAR decisions in that match. The club believes a key penalty decision was wrongly ignored after a possible handball by Marc Pubill in the 54th minute.
